The Freemason Scandal
Here is how the South African ' Catholic Magazine ' •' lights out ' against the cowardly reticence of Wie English-speaking secular press in regard to the great Freemason army scandals in France •— ' To those who have a pathetic belief in the freedom and honesty of the press, the behaviour of the majority of English papers in tne Andre scandal must ha\e been a great revelation. Compare their discreet silence oti this Subject, with the fury and sourfd that the Dreyfus case gave rise to. A Cabinet minister makes use of a secret society to prevent the promotion of some of the best officers in the army, merely because they practise tihe religion of the French people, and have pri\ate views in political matters which do not square with tjtoose of the three-year-old ministry. There is no question hero of an isolated case of injustice, but of an inquisitorial system I—hatched1 — hatched in the secret congresses of French Freemason lodges.'
